When I went to the supermarket recently, I saw salted eggs and duck eggs for sale, so I bought a few and tried them, but the taste was average. I just want to pickle some eggs myself and eat them. This reminds me of my grandma always pickling salted eggs when I was a kid. The pickled eggs are not very salty, but they are all very oily and delicious. When I was home last time, I asked my grandma for her secret recipe and tried to pickle some. Naturally, good things have to be shared with you. Now I will share with you my grandma’s secret recipe for pickled eggs that she has used for 40 years. Friends who are interested can come and learn together.

Grandma has been using a secret recipe for pickled eggs for 40 years. The pickled eggs are all oily and the method is easy to understand

Required ingredients: about 30 eggs, about 400 salt -500 grams, a handful of peppercorns, 5 star anise, appropriate amount of tangerine peel, 30 grams of strong liquor, appropriate amount of water, and a piece of ginger.

1. Prepare all the above ingredients. Next, rinse the eggs. After rinsing, wipe or dry the surface moisture. Prepare a larger glass jar or porcelain jar. It is best to have a small jar or a large porcelain basin. Put the dried eggs in it.

2. Put the peppercorns, star anise, tangerine peel, etc. into the bag and punch it in the mouth. You can also wrap it in gauze. Prepare a pot, pour an appropriate amount of water into the pot, and bring to a boil over high heat. Put the spice packet in it and add a few slices of ginger. Cook for about half an hour, add salt, stir quickly until all the salt has melted and turned into salt water, then turn off the heat.

3. Set the boiled salt water aside to cool down naturally. After the salt water is completely cool, pour in an appropriate amount of white wine and stir evenly. Pour the salt water into the egg container. Do not throw away the spice packet. Put it in together. Then seal the egg container and place it in a cool place. It will be ready after about a month.

4. When the time is up, take out the salted eggs, pour water into the steamer and bring to a boil, then put the salted eggs into the steamer and steam until cooked. And the salt water can be consumed repeatedly after eating the eggs.

If you guys think the above method is complicated and takes a long time, I also have a quick way to pickle eggs.

Ingredients required: 20 eggs, strong liquor (the higher the alcohol content, the better), and 1 pound of salt.

1. First, we wash the eggs as we did above, and then blow dry them with a hair dryer.

2. Pour the white wine into a large bowl, put the eggs in and soak them for about half a minute, rolling the eggs during this period. Soak the entire surface of the eggs so that they are covered with white wine (the higher the degree of white wine used, the better).

3. Pour the salt into a bowl or plate, then put the soaked eggs into the salt, and roll the eggs to make them evenly coated with salt. Roll all the eggs in turn with salt.

4. Prepare plastic wrap and a plastic bag, take an egg dipped in salt and wrap it in plastic wrap, so that the pickled egg will be more effective. After everything is wrapped, put it into a safe bag.

5. After everything is done, tie the mouth of the safety bag tightly and place it in a cool place for about ten days before taking it out and eating it.

In fact, after the salted eggs are steamed, if they are salty after being marinated for too long, you can soak them in water for an hour before steaming. If the salted eggs have a stronger taste, you can also mix them with minced garlic. Mash the garlic into mashed garlic and put it into a bowl. Peel the salted eggs and put them into the bowl. Mash them together with the garlic paste. Add an appropriate amount of sesame oil, vinegar and other seasonings and serve.

Tips:

1. It is best to consume high-strength liquor with a liquor content above 50 degrees. This will not only remove the fishy smell of eggs, but also make it easier for the pickled eggs to be immersed in the eggs. .

2. When storing eggs, it is best to prepare a piece of paper and write the time on it so that you can easily see how many days it has been marinated.

Well, that’s it for today. I am Mengdi. I love food and life. See you next time.
